The Boss to play Super Bowl XLIII?
The New York Post is reporting -- well, gossiping at least -- that Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will be the halftime act at Super Bowl XLIII, which will be played at Tampa's Raymond James Stadium on Feb. 1, 2009. After much pestering by me, Bruce's PR rep at Shore Fire Media finally (but kindly) had "nothing at all" to report. My buddy Chris at Backstreets.com was still searching for clues, too (and those guys know everything). According to the Post's Page Six, the hullabaloo started when E Streeter Little Steven Van Zandt supposedly rented out a local Hard Rock Cafe for the date. We don’t have a "cafe" here, but we do have a "hotel and casino." Hmm...
Music-wise, the Super Bowl has been on a halftime hot streak lately, first Prince, then Tom Petty. If this Boss news is true, WHAT DOES HE PLAY? Or better yet, WHAT SHOULD HE PLAY?
